Details

Use the allocations tables to see how much funding each local authority receives, and read the conditions of grant to find out how it should be spent.

The DSG growth calculations values tables give details of the 2019 to 2020 financial year growth calculation which forms part of the schools block in the DSG allocations.

Read the technical note to understand how we use pupil numbers to calculate these allocations.

You can also use the pupil number tool to see how many pupils are allocated to each local authority.
